Program Updates
Program updates time!� Now that I think I got most of the tutorials that I know of (I'll do a search this weekend for some more), it is time to hit the Programs and Patches section. Below you'll find a list of the programs that were either added or updated for both The Sims and The Sims 2! I'll be adding to this newspost multiple times for a couple of days until the backlog is cleared, so keep checking!
MTS2 Mesh Tool
*Found in The Sims 2 Programs Section*
Want to create new objects for The Sims 2? Now you can! This will allow you to import .obj files into a .package file for the game to read. Use your favorite 3D modeling program to create an object, then use this program to import it. It is a tad difficult to use, but with practice you'll be on your way! Check the webpage for the current status of this program.
DatGen
*Found in The Sims 2 Programs Section*
DatGen is an editor, decoding tool, and modding tool for the DBPF archive file format and the files contained within these archives. The program itself is very basic, but has a very powerful and flexible API for developing third-party file type classes and interface plugins which can extend the programs featureset indefinitely. The editor is currently compatible with the Maxis games SimCity 4, The Sims 2, and The Sims Online. The programs core libraries are designed in such a way that future games which make use of the DBPF file format should also be compatible, with minor adjustments to the code at most.
The Sims 2 Poster Importer
*Found in The Sims 2 Programs Section*
This utility will allow you to import posters to The Sims 2. You will be able to set the name, price, fun rating and room rating for every poster you create. You just need to create the bitmap and Poster Importer will do everything for you (it will automatically create a new item with every poster you import and place it in the right downloads folder).
Sims2Pack Clean Installer
*Found in The Sims 2 Programs Section*
Sims2Pack Clean Installer is an excellent program that will let you browse through .Sims2Pack files to see what content is stored inside of them. It works with skins, objects, walls and floors. It will even allow you to view the content stored inside House Files and allow you to weed through the content to take the stuff out of the house that you don't want!
SimLinks 2
*Found in The Sims 2 Programs Section*
SimLinks 2 is a small utility that helps you manage your favorite Sims 2 sites. The purpose of SimLinks 2 is to clean your Favorites Menu if you have way too many sites stored in it.
Sims Photo Tailor 5.2
*Found in The Sims Programs Section*
A few bug fixes and the location changed. The site it was on used to be JGB Productions but is now known as Born Geek
Sims Launch 4.0
*Found in The Sims Programs Section*
A few bug fixes, and now supports launching TS2 and TS2 Programs.
IffSnooper 1.1.7
*Found in The Sims Programs Section*
